Not back, unfortunately. Boltz shut down all swaps (BTC/Lightning/Liquid) on Aug 3, 2026 and said they stay disabled until further notice — only the API for cooperative refunds is up. So the boltz-client line in my answer above is stale; the domain doesn't even resolve for me right now.
The swap leg of that answer changes accordingly. What's actually available today:
Loop (Lightning Labs) — loop out/loop in against your own channels. This part survives.
Blockstream Swaps — Blockstream announced an in-house atomic swap service (HTLC, Taproot + MuSig2, non-custodial) explicitly to fill the gap Boltz left; it's in beta with select participants and being accelerated to market. One to watch, not a dependency yet.
The fee half is unchanged (charge-lnd / LNDg auto-fees), and so is the rule of thumb: automate fees, and swap (with Loop, not Boltz) when a channel crosses ~80/20.
